Did You Know?
Ultrasound is more accurate
This calculator uses LMP-based dating. A first-trimester ultrasound (8–12 weeks) measures the baby directly and is more accurate — especially if your cycles are irregular.

How to use this calculator

1

Enter LMP or conception date

LMP (Last Menstrual Period) is the most common method used by doctors.

2

Set cycle length

Default is 28 days. Adjust if your cycle is longer or shorter.

3

Read your milestones

See current week, trimester, and all key dates.

The formula explained

Naegele's Rule (standard obstetric method):

EDD = LMP + 280 days (40 weeks)

For cycles other than 28 days, the due date is adjusted by the difference from 28. A 30-day cycle shifts the due date 2 days later. Conception is estimated at LMP + (cycle length − 14) days.

Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate is this due date calculator?

The EDD is an estimate — only about 5% of babies are born on the exact due date. Full term is 37–42 weeks. Your OB will confirm dates via ultrasound, which is more accurate.

What is LMP?

Last Menstrual Period — the first day of your last period before conception. Doctors use this as the starting point for pregnancy dating even though conception happens ~14 days later.

How is the due date calculated?

Naegele's Rule: add 280 days (40 weeks) to the first day of your LMP. This assumes a 28-day cycle with ovulation on day 14.

What are the trimesters?

1st trimester: weeks 1–12. 2nd trimester: weeks 13–26. 3rd trimester: weeks 27–40. The 2nd trimester is typically the most comfortable.

How accurate is a due date calculation?

Only about 5% of babies are born on their exact due date. 80% arrive within 2 weeks before or after. The due date is an estimate based on an average 280-day pregnancy. Ultrasound dating is more accurate than LMP calculation.
